Usas-12+IRVN+frag+extended mag.
Switch servers. Some are starting to ban that combo

Usas-12+IRVN+frag+extended mag.
This is actually why I stopped playing so much. I realized between BF and Skyrim I hadn't played sc in a week. And then I got zergling rushed. (no j/k )
Honestly I'll play again in a few months when they sort out some of the issues. And as far as map favorite goes I prefer any of the jet maps. Not because I'm particularly good with a jet but because they're the only maps battlefield sized. The rest are just way too damn small for 32/64.

Anyone feel the Javelin is a total waste? I play purely Engineer (always played Engi/AT classes) and the RPG seems better in so many ways. You can fire it instantly and it's fire and forget mostly and you can use it on infantry.
I thought the Javelin would be a 2 shot on tanks (the first disabling the tank) and one shot or close to it on anything else. Turns out you need three Javelin shots just to kill a Humvee.
Anyone else notice this?

Anyone else notice this? Recipe for javelin fun
1. 1x recon with soflam, 2x engy javelins, 1x support 2. Play on operation firestorm 3. Go to the big hill outside opponents base 4. SOFLAM enemy armour or heliocopters, have both engys fire javelin at same time 5. enjoy insta killing tanks and taking down choppers!
Basically, javelin is shit without a laser designator

Hmm, I'll see if I can my buddies to give that a try, although I'm usually the only Engineer.
Still, I just love the RPG itself, I can lead targets quite well and shoot Little Birds and infantry on hills straight out of the sky. Some servers actually ban for using the RPG on infantry, but allow the grenade launcher and mortar spamming...so weird. On maps with limited to no vehicles, what else are you supposed to do as Engineer?

Some pages back someone said something about not being able to shoot out AT mines, and i just want to say that is not entirely true. You can snipe them with the M98B. I have not tried any other sniperrifles.
It is so many free points on firestorm you have no idea. And its funny as hell to snipe them as soon as the engy puts them down.

Anyone still crashing every 10 minutes? Ever since the patch it has gotten worse for me. Any tips guys? I've updated all the drivers etc and reinstalled windows. nothing seems to work for me.

Your right. I clear mines with my recon BOLT ACTION RIFLES...i do not know if the Semi-Auto Sniper rifles can clear mines or not.
EDIT: However do make sure your shooting the ENEMY mines. You can shoot your own eng's mines. I was happily clearing mine fields,then i was wondering how is it im not getting Anti-Explosive Ribbons?
Answer: I was exploding ally mines haha. True story

Usas-12+IRVN+frag+extended mag.
Switch servers. It's the best gun in the entire game by far, it 1hits if it headshots, shoots a slug so you can still hit down range if you're good and has splash damage so you can't even run away from it. I use it whenever I'm sick of losing fights on other classes and say "it's time to fucking murder everybody" the only thing that beats me relatively often is someone with an F2000 or AEK who headshots me and makes it look like I die in one shot becuase this game's netcode is awesome
hmm really? damn im not even close to unlocking that gun yet. I tried using m1014, but i dislike the fact that i cant kill people from far away ended up going back to my AEK/F2000 just because i can kill them if i can see them 
Rank 37 here. 6more ranks to go to unlock USAS

Is it just me or does anyone else just feel like base jumping the whole time?? I find this exhilarating even though I am not actually there xD.

I've been pretty satisfied with the F2000 with RDS/Foregrip/(insert anything that doesn't fuck with accuracy). I'm up to 1400 kills I think with the gun and so far (haha) I'm very content.
It's also nuts how high your score per minute climbs when you play a lot just because you're getting medals for all sorts of different things. I'm at around 530 right now and I'm pretty sure I'll be able to eventually get 600 without a problem. I generally only play rush a few times a week, so I'm mostly playing TDM/SQDM/CQ. My roommates and I were also going to play Gamebattles but we're generally too high and too lazy to set up stuff like that T.T.
I'm currently trying to get every ribbon, I'm just missing 5 I think. I still need Melee/Transport/MCOM Plant/MCOM Defend/Helicopter. Gahhhh, some of them are so frustrating to get but I'm nearly there.

Anyone playing right now ?

Wow. its pretty good man :D after hearing it, its time to play Battlefield.

I'm just about done with BF3...crashes every map change, crashes half the time upon trying to get into a server in the first place, EA Online disconnects every single time it crashes, so I have to restart that load of crap every time as well. I have this problem with exactly zero other games.
Here's a log of the event viewer, I have no idea if it would be any help to anyone. I would love to actually be able to play it like a normal person.

same for me. usas, irnv, MAV, mobile AA need to be nerfed until this game is playable again.

Question, how do you dive with your MAV , or like lower your altitude. I can only find ways to climb... Quite difficult for running people over
|
Crouch to dive your MAV. (Default is Ctrl button)
